SUPPORTING HCTC STUDENTS
Due to the generous support of many community individuals and organizations, HCTC is proud to make awarding scholarships one of its priorities. HCTC offers a variety of scholarship. While eligibility criteria may vary, scholarships are available to help meet most of our students needs. Some are general scholarship for students in any field of study, while others are dedicated to students in particular disciplines such as nursing, radiography, or mining technology. Additionally, we offer scholarship for single mothers, minority students, and students who have demonstrated academic promise or have financial need. Scholarships are a great source of student aid, because they are considered gift aid and do not have to be repaid. This helps limit student indebtedness. Please keep in mind that not all applicants receive awards; however, all students are encouraged to apply!
Priority submission date is: February 28.
